Motion For Alternate Service {DR-70}

CC-DR-070 - MOTION FOR ALTERNATE SERVICE AND AFFIDAVIT (Md. Rules 2-121, 2-122). This form is used in the Maryland Circuit Court when a plaintiff or petitioner has been unable to serve legal documents to the opposing party through standard means. The form allows the filer to request the court’s permission to serve the documents by alternative methods, such as posting, publication, or another form of notice deemed appropriate by the court. The filer must describe all reasonable efforts made to locate and serve the opposing party, such as attempts to contact them by phone or social media, inquiries with government agencies, mailing letters to relatives or employers, or hiring a private investigator. The filer must also affirm under penalty of perjury that they do not know the opposing party’s current whereabouts and may include a financial statement if they cannot afford additional efforts like publication. www.FormsWorkflow.com
